Planning Your Next Campaign? Start a Conversation.

Find Lead Gifts

Our methodology encourages stretch gifts and uncovers hidden donors.

Protect Viability

Our counsel keeps you on track towards an aspirational, yet attainable, goal.

Fuel Your Vision

A Winkler Group-led capital campaign is the first step in achieving your vision.

CAPITAL CAMPAIGN LEADERSHIP

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to capital campaigns.

Nothing has the power to transform an organization or institution more than a capital campaign with strategy at its foundation. New facilities, more programs for students or communities, or an endowment that secures the future.

CAMPAIGN FEASIBILITY STUDIES

Your campaign will raise more money if you start with a Winkler Group-led campaign study.

We interview as many of your donors as possible—at no additional charge. Why? Because donor buy-in leads to investment. And bigger campaign goals.

MEET YOUR TEAM

So many of our clients tell us they’ve been underwhelmed by other consultants they’ve worked with. They notice an immediate difference once they partner with us.
